Fat Leonard and the 7th fleet scandal

[dilbert firestorm]

https://www.washingtonpost.com/inves...=.160e7c9f9a79

this is what happens when corruption at the top filters down to other agencies including the military.

the scandal itself is shocking in that several admirals ignored the obvious corruption taking place on their watch.

article doesn't say how the scandal was finally exposed.

A close friend of mine was an intelligence officer with actual Capt rank, but was assigned to various bases overseas as a non-com with a military specialty of a "clerk typist" assigned to field commanders. He tracked communications on site...phone and documents.

That is not unusual at all.

ok, so likely a comm officer noticed some unusual activity that violated regs within the 7th fleet and reported this to the appropriate command.

yeah, that makes sense.

There you have it....military corruption is not unusual at all.

In fact the majority of Republicans do not care about corruption in the military, only in social services.

If that were actually true, it would certainly make sense in 2017 and 2018 ... so far. Since the Democrats in Congress have decided that anointing a million illegal aliens as citizens is more important than protecting the United States (to which they wish to become citizens!).

But parrots mindlessly repeat shit!

Hopefully our military will stop disclosing to the news media their plans, strategies, preparedness (or lack thereof), locations of materiel and personnel, INVESTIGATIONS, and/or special projects and experimental weapons ... so the Liberal/Anti-Trump Media can broadcast those matters to our enemies AND FRIENDS (who then disclose it to OUR ENEMIES).

The previous administration did a good job of neutering our military capabilities with disclosure and failure to fund. Thank you Obaminable and the Liberal "PeaceNiks"!

We could probably agree that often "regs" are not "followed," but they don't get the attention of "violations" that place personnel and physical assets at an unacceptable risk.

Any half-wit can spend a little time driving through a new housing development and observe how our government should be run, which it hasn't been for a long time. All the half-wit has to observe is: securing the contractors' equipment, preparing the foundations, erecting perimeters and covers first, protecting the existing improvements, and finishing out the inside ONLY once the exteriors (PERIMETERS) are secure .... within budget. The Government doesn't even have to make a profit! That's why Trump is effective. He knows! And he's surrounded himself with others who do also.

This is what the Liberal/Anti-Trumpers do to our society and country:



Destroy shit and contaminate the atmosphere.

We know polly. We watch you do it daily. How about the draw down in Iraq?

And the "Libertarian" once again passes judgement on Republicans and turns a blind to Democrats. (It's strange how often he does that even though he is not a member of the party.)

Remember when Obama purged the officer ranks of our military and promoted his people? Note the dates when all this happened libtard.
